ICEF Monitor: New survey reinforces career goals a primary motivation for study abroad
1 Jun 2016
Here are the highlights:
- A new survey of 43,000 prospective international students echoes findings from other recent student surveys that employability and career goals are a key motivation for study abroad
- The survey notes, however, a growing openness to alternative forms of education beyond university degrees as well as willingness to stay home to study if the quality of domestic programmes improves
- The accompanying study report observes fierce competition for students in a relatively small number of markets, mainly in Asia, and calls for a more diversified – and evidence-based – approach to recruitment
